Like Steve Rubel and, I'm sure, many others, I got a glimpse of my Google Analytics results last night. I have to say, I was really impressed with the functionality and much of the interface design. However, the quality of the service is so poor that it out-weighs anything one can say about the interface. I attempted to login this morning and at every try was redirected to the standard Google search page.
My initial reaction to the Google data was to suspect that MeasureMap was going to be dead in the water. However, it is important to underline the fact that MeasureMap is a weblog stats tool, not a general website stats tool. Consequently, it explicitly models the structure of and possible interactions with a weblog and reports data on vistor behaviour with respect to these. This feature, together with the fact that it actually works, unlike Google's offering, means that I am unlikely to revisit my stats page at Google for a while.
